OH , need to add that the clearing hole in the pommel makes the bayo a bit later version , if you look closely at the blade at the junction with the cross piece it should indicate it a crown /over/1907 , and below that a digit for month - left and 'double digit for year of mfgr - right , below that should be the mfgr name .....opposite side will have bending test "X" , inspector marks , and a broad arrow acceptance mark

 

it happens that i have a mole , an EFD [enfeild] , a chapman , and a lithgow representing the P07s in my collection , but i would have been most pleased to have found a wilkinson back when i was looking , i collected an example of the hookie , an early and a later without the hook , then i had to date match one to my mint '42 dispersal - thus that lithgow , it was all just luck of what i found and to be honest if i found a brit made '42 dated P07 i would part with my lithgow ......the others im pleased with

 

Until quite late the command waqs "fix swords' Not fix bayonets

 

A couple of points, first the scabbard.

 

During WW2, the British Home Guard had a tendancy to paint everything either Green, or Brown. you'll see this with the SMLE also...where they have painted the rifles metalwork.

 

Now you bayonet.

The clearance hole in the pommel of the '07' was ordered to be a procedure during manufacture from mid 1916.

 

The example you show is indeed a late war manufacture of 10-18 = October 1918. The two ways in which the Wilkinson Sword Company stamped their items during WW1 were as follows:- Wilkinson, and Wilkinson Pall Mall. For WW2, the stamping was changed to an abreviation, and included the area coding for that compamy = S294 WSC.
